Wonderfull experience
From day one Mike was helpfull and set up a 2 days visit to Amboselli and a 3 days visit to Masai Mara for us. I travelled with my wife on a private tour with Ancient. First transportation was quire old. We asked a different car for the second safari and Mike acceded kindly. Our driver found the best spot for watching the animals and gave useful explanations. Mike was allways in touch via whatsapp and responded promptly to our requests. Advisable company to hire.
Surreal amazing experience
My partner and I went on a 3 day Masai Mara Safari for the first time and I must say it was an absolutely out of this world experience, it was surreal. The team at Beacon Safari was very helpful and the communication was straight forward and precise from the beginning with our inquiry until the end of our Safari trip, they where also able to make special arrangements for us and willing to do whatever it took to make our Safari trip very enjoyable and I must say they've achieved this with flying colours, me and my partner have been overwhelmed by the whole experience and the services that Beacon Safari was able to offer us.
I'll like to thank Robert who was able to guide me and assist me through the whole process and went the extra mile to help us with our needs and also I'll like to thank John our Safari tour guide he was absolutely brilliant and very knowledgeable he made our entire Safari experience an amazing experience, it was a joy having him as our tour guide, he went out of his way to cater for our every needs he was excellent. Beacon Safaris is highly recommended 10 out of 10 score for their exceptional services provided we will definitely be recommending them to family and friends. Thanks again to the staffs at Beacon Safaris keep up the excellent work, absolutely without a doubt best of the rest.

Life long unforgetable experiance!
Our safari tour with Armand was absolutly amazing, exceeding all our expectations. We came very close to all the animals, granting us phenomenal photographs. Not only did we have close encounters, we also received the most knowledgeable information throughout every game drive. We will be forever greatful for the wonderful experience. Thank you!

Unforgettable Safari
We had the opportunity to meet Armand on our recent trip to Kruger. He was an excellent guide. After three days of no lion sightings with other guides, he found us not one lion sighting but three, and the elusive leopard all in one day.
Not only did he provide an excellent tour full of education about the animals, plants, and region he also is a man of great integrity. There was another safari tour that had gotten a flat on the side of the road. He took the time to help them change the tire. I think this is a great example of his character and professionalism as a guide.
I would highly recommend going on tour with Armand. He was great at engaging us throughout the entire and experience and finding some amazing animal sightings! Thank you for everything Armand!
Oh by the way he is also an amazing photographer.

Very Professional
From the first email until good-byes at the airport, everything about Trevaron Tours was highly professional. Hannah at the office planned an itinerary around our personal interests and then met us upon arrival at the airport (11 PM on a Saturday night). She went with us in the transport to the hotel and made sure all our questions were answered. Next morning, our guide, Simon arrived in a well equipped Land Cruiser. Simon was friendly, capable and knowledgable. If we asked a question that he didn't know the answer to, he wasn't shy to say so - but then he would find out the answer. He drove carefully, was knowledgeable about the animals, birds, plants, geography, climate, history, and current affairs of Kenya. He also speaks 4 languages and was delightful company. The one minor problem that arose during the safari was quickly handled and sorted out. At the end of our 12 days, Hannah met us for a review. I wouldn't hesitate to use Trevaron again, and to recommend them to others.

A trip of a lifetime
This was our first time going on safari and we depended greatly on Natasha at Sun Safari for all of our accommodations, road transfers, tours and small aircraft reservations. The trip exceeded our highest expectations, with every lodge and hotel, tour guide and tracker, being outstanding, professional and of the highest quality. We had not a moment of stress despite having numerous arrangements in a country unknown to us. Natasha handled every detail with professional skill and we can recommend her highly.

Yes you can!
My girlfriend, 22, and I, 26, had a great experience with Back of Africa Adventure, from the very first day of our pick-up at the airport by the greatest guide you may find - Obama :) - until being dropped off again. All our questions in advance and in the Back of Africa office in Nairobi were handled with joy and professionalism by Allan.
We decided to go for a four-day safari, one to be spent in Nakuru NP and three in Masai Mara NP. On Day One, Obama picked us up at our place in the outskirts of Nairobi early in the morning to start the trip to Nakuru through the beautiful Rift Valley. Upon arrival in Nakuru, we had the opportunity to check into a very comfortable, spacious hotel where we had a great lunch and rest before embarking on our first game drive in Nakuru NP. Although it was raining, Obama made sure we had the most mesmerising time; we spotted many birds, gazelles, antilopes, buffalos, giraffes, zebras, baboons, and, the absolute highlight, four rhinos, both black and white rhinos. Obama taught us about the animals' lives with great expertise throughout all encounters.
In the morning of Day Two, we continued our journey in joyful mood to Masai Mara NP, only to find out that our Nakuru experience could be topped. We spent two nights in a lovely eco camp run by local Maasai right next to a river bordering the park. During three days of safari (afternoon drive - full-day game drive - morning drive), we saw the Big Five and many other species. It was clear that this was mostly thanks to Obama's great expertise and knowledge of the park - he knew every corner and road and, most importantly, where to find wildlife in its finest form. Apart from that, he also was the go-to-guy for the other safari operators. In Masai Mara NP, Obama was also very open to spontaneous rescheduling and gave his best for us to have an incredible time. During long hours in the car outside the nationalparks, he further discussed not only the animals and plants, but also football and Kenyan politics - he knows it all! On top of all, Obama and Allan together dropped us off at the airport in Nairobi, incl. a farewell drive alongside the Nairobi NP. Cristina and I couldn't have been in better hands and highly recommend this operator with their amazing staff to everyone interested in visiting Kenya. Special thanks to Allan and Obama!

For the third time with NHS, I enjoyed every moment and will plan to go back as often as I can!
From the moment I started to plan my (trips), Helen was helpful and available for assistance at all times. She has infinite patience for sorting through details. The whole time with the crew, each person makes every guest feel as if they are the most valuable one in the group, treating everyone with care and compassion. Throughout the ride, during challenging conditions and uncomfortable situations, Andrew and his team handle everything smoothly with unflaggingly, gentle humour. The care of the horses is excellent. It is comforting to me to know that their wellbeing is of primary consideration in difficult conditions. Each ride is different both in level of challenge and terrain. I've enjoyed all three very much and when asked could not choose a favourite. When asked to describe my experiences with NHS, I have difficulty articulating the scope of the experience. The time I have spent with these people and horses in this magnificent landscape have been the finest times in my life.

Family trip of a lifetime
From the first day planning our trip six mo. ago to the check in call during our trip, Justin was amazing to work with and and ensured every aspect of the trip was exceptional. Customizing our trip to include our areas of interest and the type of accommodations we requested instead of just a standard out of the box itinerary with a large group was a huge benefit of working with Justin. Our personnel tours, guides, and transfers were first rate and lodges/boutique inns were perfect. I would highly recommend Justin and Paperjet Travel!!

The treatment was ozom!!! The viewing Incredible!!
A guide who is extremely experienced and knows where the animals are and has a great interest in providing his costumer with the best experience. I recommend greatly Lion King Adventures. Besides the safari he helped to communicate with other providers, arrange for other activities at his own expense and went beyond whatever expectations I had of him. In short the best treatment-service Adventure!!
